Cult of Mac thinks so.  We aren't feeling that Apple logo tho.  And those ports look mighty small if that ruler is in perspective.  How about you?  Yay or Nay?  Update: Its made of a new material!  Wood

Prediction: it's a knockoff.

Nay. Wrong logo, and the new apple laptop will be aluminum using the new unibody technology. Going back to polycarbon shell wouldn't make sense.

I think it's pretty obvious

I think it's pretty obvious that it's a fake. But thats just me

not in a million years. completely fake logo, more ports than an air, plasticy looking enclosure. but really, the fake logo tells you that it's well, fake.

No no, it's just a giant

No no, it's just a giant ruler.

Pretty generic!

Anything is possible but after this long development effort and Apples trash talk another me to product isn't going to soothe the desires that have been built up. In fact it ought to embarass Apple throughly.

Given that it is still the wrong size in my opinion. The device is almost ten inches long, to big to achieve the portability I want.

Its just a MacBook scaled

Its just a MacBook scaled down... The back and side are identical to the MacBook, and Apple wouldn't cram all the same ports onto a netbook... Plus, why would they reuse plastic after developing the aluminum unibody enclosure.

BS. Pure and simple.

no way. apple would never butcher their logo like that. looks awful. and yea, going back to the plastic isn't something apple would do in my opinion.

It's real if Apple are bringing a heap of all new proprietary ports to the market.

What the hell

We are talkng apple and not MSI or ACER. No way this is mac. And how am I so confident ??.. Apple spent million of $$$$ on creating plant for Unibody Manufacturing and they ofcorse wont introduce new models with PLASTIC BODY.

Poor Lonnie, if I was egghead Kahney I would promptly fire him. It's for things like this one here that wired kicked CoM rotting carcass away in the shadows.

NOOOT!

If Apple's gonna produce such a netbook, I'm gonna loose my faith. It's just ugly and doesn't look like any inovation. It's propably a macbook with a wrong ruler beside it and a photoshoped logo. NAY!
